From Science News:

One of Earth's shimmering dust clouds has been spotted at last

Lisa Grossman
13 November 2018

Meet the Kordylewski dust clouds, shimmering pseudo-satellites
that orbit Earth near the moon. A team of Hungarian astronomers
say they have spotted light scattered from one of these clouds,
providing evidence that the clouds really exist after nearly 60
years of controversy.

The twin dust clouds gather at two of the points in space where
the gravity of Earth and the moon cancel each other out. That
gravitational stability makes these spots, called Lagrange
points, good places to park spacecraft. They also could trap
interplanetary debris.

No one had seen any dust clouds since 1961, when Polish
astronomer Kazimierz Kordylewski reported the first sighting at
two gravity holes, L4 and L5. Some astronomers thought that the
sun's stronger gravity would periodically sweep dust out of L4
and L5, making it hard for the areas to support clouds.

This is Shortwave Radiogram in Olivia 16-2000 ...

Astronomers Judit Slíz-Balogh, András Barta and Gábor Horváth,
all of Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, looked for the
clouds using specially designed filters. These filters detect
light that's been polarized, or had its electromagnetic waves
aligned, by bouncing around the dust grains.

The team spent several months making observations in
Slíz-Balogh's private observatory in the western Hungarian
village of Badacsonytördemic. "It is hard to find moonless and
cloudless good nights in Hungary," the astronomers write in a
paper set to be published in January in the Monthly Notices of
the Royal Astronomical Society. But the team finally spotted a
telltale shimmer at L5. The physics of the Lagrange points
suggests that, if one cloud exists, the other does, too. The trio
still wants to search for the L4 cloud directly.

Computer simulations suggest L4 and L5 are only partially stable,
the team reports in a paper in the Nov. 11 MNRAS. The clouds may
hang around for years or decades, but the sun's gravity will
eventually scatter them into space. That could explain the "now
you see it, now you don't" results of past searches for the
clouds, the team says.

Our listener and contributor Merkouris, SV2HWM, in Greece,
writes:

          Last week the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico conducted
          its latest Ionospheric heating campaign using HF. Most, if
          not all, of the experiments were conducted on 5095 kHz,
          resulting in excellent reception in Greece during the hours
          of darkness. According to a tweet by Dr. Chris Fallen,
          researcher at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, which
          operates HAARP, the net HF power of the Arecibo's heater
          was about 460 kW with 22 dB gain at 5.1 MHz.

          Two videos of the transmitted signals, as they were received
          here in Greece, can be viewed at my @SV2HWM twitter account:

          https://bit.ly/2PYw1KI

          and

          https://bit.ly/2B4v2jS


For this broadcast, Merkouris formatted this Wikipedia
article about the renowned message that was sent from Arecibo
into space in 1974 ...


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

The Arecibo message is a 1974 interstellar radio message carrying
basic information about humanity and Earth sent to globular star
cluster M13 in the hope that extraterrestrial intelligence might
receive and decipher it. The message was broadcast into space a
single time via frequency modulated radio waves at a ceremony to
mark the remodeling of the Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico
on 16 November 1974. The message was aimed at the current
location of M13 some 25,000 light years away because M13 was a
large and close collection of stars that was available in the sky
at the time and place of the ceremony. The message consisted of
1,679 binary digits, approximately 210 bytes, transmitted at a
frequency of 2,380 MHz and modulated by shifting the frequency by
10 Hz, with a power of 450 kW. The "ones" and "zeros" were
transmitted by frequency shifting at the rate of 10 bits per
second. The total broadcast was less than three minutes.

Dr. Frank Drake, then at Cornell University and creator of the
Drake equation, wrote the message with help from Carl Sagan,
among others. The message consists of seven parts that encode the
following (from the top down):

1. The numbers one (1) to ten (10)

2. The atomic numbers of the elements hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen,
oxygen, and phosphorus, which make up deoxyribonucleic acid

3. The formulas for the sugars and bases in the nucleotides of
DNA

4. The number of nucleotides in DNA, and a graphic of the double
helix structure of DNA

5. A graphic figure of a human, the dimension (physical height)
of an average man, and the human population of Earth

6. A graphic of the Solar System indicating which of the planets
the message is coming from

7. A graphic of the Arecibo radio telescope and the dimension
(the physical diameter) of the transmitting antenna dish

Since it will take nearly 25,000 years for the message to reach
its intended destination (and an additional 25,000 years for any
reply), the Arecibo message is viewed as a demonstration of human
technological achievement ...

Full article at https://bit.ly/1RouTcP


Merkouris also created "an audio file which reproduces the
graphic representation of the Arecibo message on the waterfall of
any SDR or decoding software. Best results, i.e. correct aspect
ratio, can be obtained with Fldigi with the normal speed setting."

Also zoom in on your SDR spectrum display for a good view of the
graphic representation.

Slow Scan Radio November 17, 2018, Episode 15

Last week we abruptly switched from Wednesday evening to Saturday afternoon.

Last Wednesday was the third week in row that the show could not be received by most Dutch listeners, this is where most of our listeners are.

The new time slot is lot's better for reception in the Netherlands. At the same moment we regret very much that listeners that are at a greater distance will probably experience a weaker signal, but this was the only solution to keep many of our Dutch listeners
involved with the show.

Slow Scan Radio however is a European show. If many listeners can't hear the show in the new time slot, we will have to think of a solution for that as well.

This week we have 12 pictures, varying from PD50 (320 x 256, 50 secs.) to PD180 (640 x 496, 187 secs.)

--

After the pictures you will find a list of what's in the pictures and copyright info.
